After rebirth, I remarried the domineering 9000-year-old

Xie Tingyu remained silent.

He still has concerns.

Seeing her son frowning and not responding, Concubine Duan suddenly thought of something, and a flicker of disdain flashed across her eyes: "Are you still thinking about your concubine?"

"Yu'er, now is not the time to act rashly. Nanxing is about to return triumphantly and is in the limelight..."

Xie Tingyu looked seriously into Concubine Duan's eyes and said solemnly, "I only have one question for you, Mother. You must tell me the truth and not hide anything."

Concubine Duan was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, ask."

Xie Tingyu: "Son, am I your father's biological blood?"

Concubine Duan's expression suddenly changed. She looked around and saw no one was around. She immediately said angrily, "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Seeing her son's eyes still fixed on her, Concubine Duan looked around and glared at him: "What are you thinking? Of course you are your father's biological son!"

"Mother didn't lie to me?"

Concubine Duan was so angry that she poked his forehead with her index finger and said unhappily, "When has your mother ever lied to you?"

"Don't ask this kind of question again in the future, do you hear me?"

Xie Tingyu's expression finally relaxed a little, and he let out a long breath quietly, but he just nodded: "Yes, mother."

Concubine Duan also breathed a sigh of relief, with cold sweat already on her back: "What about Nanxing..."

Xie Tingyu said: "I will prepare the gifts today."

Xie Tingyu left the palace with six hundred taels of gold and an extra hundred taels of silver given by Concubine Duan.

That eunuch Fu Jiuli had some letters between his mother and his cousin when they were young, and he used them to threaten him into writing a divorce letter.

He was actually very afraid of that dirty possibility, worried that this matter would really be known by his father. If he were not his father's son, his end would surely be extremely miserable.

Go ask the Queen Mother. How could he ask such a question?

I never thought that I would ask this question by accident today, but fortunately the answer was what he wanted.

Even if those letters from my mother and my cousin really fall into my father's hands one day, he is still my father's biological son and he will never do anything to him.

That being the case, he has nothing to fear.

After thinking all this through, Xie Tingyu returned to Prince Jing's Mansion with light steps.

He first went back to Xinlan Garden to see Shen Zhiyi. Seeing that her complexion had improved a lot, he called two trusted servants.

He ordered one of them to take five hundred taels of gold to return to the palace doctor, and ordered another to go to the Nether Valley to invite the old doctor Shen Nanqiang in his name.

After arranging these things, he sat down on the stool next to Shen Zhiyi and held her fair little hand in his palm and played with it.

"Yier, I'm sorry, Brother Yu is going to break his promise."

"Due to circumstances, I cannot divorce Shen Nanxing for the time being, and therefore cannot marry you as my principal wife..."

"But this is also unavoidable. You are the only one I love in my heart. You have always been the most understanding. Can you understand me?"

"Also, be a good boy next time and don't be so willful anymore, okay?"

He kissed the woman's palm: "If you don't like me to go to Zhirou, I won't go there anymore. Don't commit suicide over such a small matter again..."

At this point, his eyes became moist. He put the woman's hand against his cheek and said, "You don't know. When I woke up today and saw you covered in blood, I was really scared..."

"If something happens to you, how can you live with your brother Yu?"

Xie Tingyu stayed with Shen Zhiyi the whole night. At night, he avoided her wounds and simply hugged her to sleep.

The next morning, he kissed Shen Zhiyi's still slightly pale cheek, and couldn't help but kiss her pale lips again.

Her voice was gentle: "Yier, Brother Yu has something to do and has to go out for a while today. I will come back to see you in two days. You should take good care of your injuries."

When she left, she told the maid to take good care of Shen Zhiyi, and then she left with the one hundred taels of silver given by Concubine Duan.

Xie Tingyu thought about it carefully and felt that Shen Nanxing must still be in love with him.

It wasn't so long ago that she was creating opportunities to meet me every day and was eager to marry me. It's only been a short time, how could she change her mind so easily?

I think it's just because there is another woman beside him and she is angry with him.

As for the rumor that she liked Fu Jiuli, he would never believe it.

After all, although Fu Jiuli has a good appearance, he is a eunuch after all...

She was just mad at him.

He believed that as long as he personally went to pick her up and brought her back home, gave her a gift to coax her, and said a few soft words, she would definitely forgive him.

Since Yi'er has been unconscious for the past two days, he can use these two days to accompany Shen Nanxing and consummate his marriage with her.

As for women, no matter how tough they are, they will become obedient once their body is broken.

If it doesn't work the first time, try it a few more times, and you'll eventually make her fall in love with you.

Xie Tingyu had no doubt about this, as the noblemen in the capital whom he often played with all said so.

Look at Zhirou in his house, isn’t that the case?

Before, she didn't allow him to touch her on the pleasure boat and even struggled. Now that he slept with her once, doesn't that mean she has fallen deeply in love with him?

The more Xie Tingyu thought about it, the more feasible it seemed to him. The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously, and even his steps became a lot lighter.

He only had 100 taels of silver in his hand to buy a gift for Shen Nanxing, so he didn't go to the Treasure Pavilion, a place that noble ladies from wealthy families loved to visit.

After all, the things in the Treasure Pavilion are too expensive and there is no need for them.

He finally spent ten taels of silver and bought a crudely made silver hairpin at the grocery store on the corner.

He vaguely remembered that he had given Shen Nanxing many gifts when he was a child. Most of them were worthless things, but she liked them very much every time.

This silver hairpin is not bad, Xie Tingyu thought to himself.

Some of the things he had given her before, and she hadn't even spent a penny on them! She still liked them very much and kept them for many years.

......

So on the day when Shen Nanxing led the army back to the capital, Xie Tingyu took the silver hairpin and went to the outskirts of Beijing.

On the road that Shen Nanxing had to take to return to the capital, ten miles outside the capital, the people were bustling around, lining the streets to welcome him, and the streets were deserted.

Xie Tingyu rode his horse and arrived at the suburban pavilion ten miles away to wait.

Along the way, the people's faces were filled with bright smiles. Some who recognized him greeted him, "Your Majesty, are you going to pick up the princess in person?"

Xie Tingyu smiled and nodded: "Yes, I haven't seen the princess for a long time, and I miss her very much."

The people praised him one after another: "You and the princess have such a good relationship!"

They started discussing with each other again.

"It seems those rumors are all false!"

"Of course it's fake. Didn't you see that Prince Jing came to pick up the princess in person?"

"That's right. I was wondering why the princess would like Jiu Qian Sui. Jiu Qian Sui is..."

"Hush! You don't want to live? How dare you say that..."

In the distance, the sound of horse hooves came like thunder, getting closer and closer.

The people cheered with increasing excitement.

"Look! General Shen is back!"
